'Masterful . . . even better than Hannibal.' Allan Massie

In the name of Rome, Scipio Africanus conquered the hard-won empires of Hannibal and of Alexander the Great. With breath-taking battle scenes and violent passions, here his story lives again.

This novel of love and betrayal recreates the life and times of a military genius who discovers he is only a man.

'Leckie brings the battle-tactics and manoeuvres almost cinematically alive and the sense of blood and sweat, chaos and horror linger powerfully in . . . utterly gripping.' Scotsman

'A fine achievement, a thoughtful and stylish piece of historical fiction.' Daily Telegraph

'By turns lucid, enlightening and thrilling, this is the historical novel at its best.' Historical Novel Society
